The show came to a crashing halt earlier this year after presenter Jeremy Clarkson punched the show's producer in the face following a day of filming.

The team says it's confident this new show will quickly gain as much popularity as "Top Gear."

The trio has a big budget and big plans for the show. Hammond told The Times, "There's a lot to be done because we will reinvent, do new stuff, and that's as invigorating as it gets. So what a fantastic challenge."
